Finally finished Loki & Sigyn: Lessons on Chaos, Laughter, & Loyalty from the Norse Gods by Lea Svendsen. Honestly, this is the best book on Loki I have yet to read! Highly, highly recommend it. Here’s some of my favorite quotes from the book.

[randomtheidiot]

Something that deeply upsets me.

I hate how Hades and Persephone have become the archetypal “healthy goth mythology couple who love each other” when

-Hades kidnapped Persephone (his niece) when she was a young girl and tricked her into eating pomegranate seeds to trap her with him forever, which was a very bad thing to do. (Also, anyone who says that there’s a secret feminist version of the myth is talking out their ass, there is no such thing in any of the recorded versions of the myth.)

-Loki and Sigyn were rIGHT FUCKING THERE-

And for the record, I blame OSP for this.

[tempestfoxfire]

Finally got my full altar setup last night and the way Loki and Sigyn’s incense fell together today during my morning devotional is giving me so much joy. Always together, always beloved.

[poorbrokemess]

Tea and waffles before bed 🥰

[sigyndottir]

I realized no one’s ever done a video tribute for Sigyn, so guess what I’m gonna do now. And not just one, but MANY!

[anyrisse]

I liked it too! I actually thought it had a lot about Sigyn. Like, I get what you are saying, it was definitely more on Loki, but I think it's the most I've see about Sigyn in a single place before. There's just not as much information about her around, but it felt like the author tried to make sure she was included in as many sections as possible.

I think with the Marvel stuff (which I obv love, but also it brought me to Loki), people just need to remember that it isn't supposed to be totally accurate. It's superheroes based on Norse Gods, not a documentary. It's just a fun entertainment for the most part, with the side effect of getting some people interested in the real Gods.

Now, I'm going to share my favorite parts from the book:

I would very much like to see a cartoony art of this scene. At least one person has to have the 😨 face. Maybe 😱 too. With Loki looking both proud and smug. Pretty sure it would be hilarious.

I have not given Loki alcohol, and I probably won't. But I am very interested to hear what that experience is like.

So, as a note, I got this book awhile ago... Actually, a few days short of a year ago. I've got some big discrimination stuff happening right now and, I don't know... I guess when I read this I felt like I was supposed to be reading it right now because I needed to hear that it is time to bite and bite hard. So while it's not a funny part like the others, hopefully someone else that needs to read this right now will see it too.

I finally got around to reading Lea Svendsen's book, Loki and Sigyn: Lessons on Chaos, Laughter, and Loyalty from the Norse Gods. While there were a few very minor things I disagreed with, it's something I think all Heathens and Loki-curious folks need to read. I wish there was a tad more on Sigyn, but there is just so much to say about Loki that it's not at all surpising that he dominates the text a little lol. It was such a good book.

But I didn't really come here to give a book review. I came here to share a few entries from the glossary. Because the way Lea describes a few things is just...😙🤌

The last sentence got me 🤣

Poor Thor, but not incorrect in my experience 🤣

This was just right on the money for me. He does naturally share more physical traits with Loki than the character does. 🤣 I am also of the belief that Loki had a hand in getting Tom cast. If someone is gonna play a character bearing his name (to the point where their visage is basically synonymous with his name), they gotta be handsome and charming and play the character sympathetically. Personally, I think Tom fits that bill lol

On a related note, I did appreciate Lea's lack of disdain for Marvel. It's not always accurate to the lore or who the deities are, sure, but it's bringing people (myself included) to the deities. I think they generally appreciate that, as long as folks are able to move beyond the Marvel material. And as I've said before, they sometimes find ways to work themselves into that material, whether the writers/creators believe in them or not.

Anyway, highly recommend this book!

"Happy pride Month!"

It's that time of the year where we all finally get to celebrate what makes us in the LGBTQA+ community so unique! We have been here all throughout history and what's not more perfect then the proof we have through our mythological gods and figures!

Featuring characters: Njord, Skadi, Heimdallr, Loki, Freyr, Gerdr, Sigyn, Hoenir, Natt and Fulla.

Explanations down below ⬇

Reasonings:

Loki is obviously gender fluid to our more modern understanding and I feel like he is bisexual with a preference for women! Biggest egg out there. 🥚🏳️‍⚧️

Heimdall is polyamorus and bisexual because he slept between a wife and husband 3 times to create the 3 classes of humanity.

Freyr was worshipped by gay men, either he is queer or a huge ally!

Gerdr is non binary because their name is a unisex name used for anybody!

I think Njord is transmasc because there is possible evidence of him having been a woman or had a female form at some point before the norse period. That's where we get the name Njorun!

Skadi is transfem even though she is presented as more masculine then the other goddesses and takes on a sons role in her very own myth!

Sigyn is on the asexual spectrum since she's one of very few goddesses who haven't cheated on their lover. Personally I see her as demi!

Hoenir is on the aroace spectrum, he seems to care more about anything but having a romantic relationship.

Natt is polyamorus because she has multiple husbands and divorce was never mentioned. They have multiple kids.

Fulla is lesbian because she and Frigg share their little secrets in her box 😏

‼️ Friendly reminder that for some transgender people, you can still present as the gender you were assigned with at birth. it's just that you feel more comfortable now that you're in the right body ‼️

[chaos-bites]

Oh my word hi!!! I can’t believe I found someone who works with Sigyn!! I’ve been working with Loki for a short while now and he said that Sigyn likes me and wants to work with me too, but I looked all over the place and there’s like nothing about her anywhere— can you tell me some stuff about her? Thank you!! Also totally fine if you can’t/don’t want to answer this ask!!

-🐍

Hey, 🐍!

No worries at all, I am always happy to help!

Sigyn is VERY difficult to find information on, due to the lack of surviving stories around her. The only way I really found information was through local Scandinavian folk tales, as there are many that have similar traits regarding her. Here's some of the info I've found + UPG, but of course, I always recommend looking into it yourself and doing what feels right to you:

~ To me, Sigyn is a goddess of victory, loyalty, protection of children, protection of the home, and temperance (UPG and folk lore mostly)

~ She enjoys offerings that remind her of her children, Narfi/Nari and Váli; children's toys, stuffed animals, candies, and cute wolf-related imagery are usually good (bonus points if it's something from your childhood)

~ Bowls, honey, apples, candies, and mead make great offerings

~ She likes sakura flowers and cute things

~ She also enjoys songs that empower women, slow songs, and songs with meaningful lyrics (love songs also works)

~ She and Loki love each other VERY dearly

If it helps, I can include how her personality is for me. She presents herself in a very motherly and gentle way, but she can be extremely protective and is VERY powerful. She doesn't flaunt her power, however, and tends to be really chill about it, actually. When she and Loki are in the same space, they are very affectionate towards each other, and it's honestly really cute. ☺️💕

Something you can also do for her as a devotional act is "hold her bowl". According to mythos, she holds a bowl over the chained Loki's forehead to catch venom dripping onto him for eternity. To honor her, you can hold a bowl in your hands for however long you're able with a devoted candle lit for her. I recommend doing this in front of her altar. Since I have a disability, it's best to do it for 15 minutes or so, but you're welcome to hold it for a longer or shorter time, if you'd like to try it!

I hope this helps you in some way, but if you have more questions, please feel free to ask! Talking about Sigyn is absolutely awesome; it's super hard to find people who actually worship her these days. Anyway, take care!

Welcome back to another episode of “Sudden Pagan Realisations!” Today’s realisation is;

Technically speaking, the act of “fangirling” could be described as an act of worship in itself.

Brought to you by our sponsors “Loki and Sigyn content is so damn romantic that I kick my heels up and squeal every time I see or think about it, spending months pondering if that was diminishing/overly romanticising their relationship only to realise that it’s still an act of devotion cause I’m spending time thinking about them or even making content as devotionals for them.”

[starry-polytheism]

... okay so. as much as i love the hellenic gods, i can't help but to feel a pull towards wanting to add loki (and possibly sigyn too?) to my worship so- anyone willing to lend some resources on that?

[botanical-babes]

me: hey i was groomed by members of this community into a toxic and grooming relationship with your god, which there is precedent for in UPG from former Big Name Krasskova of Sigyn being groomed by Loki, which wasnt challenged as much when i was in the community in 2012-2015, nor was the overwhelming lack of boundaries between teens and adults in a very sexually charged religion, and I have trauma ì am not able to share anywhere because people refuse to acknowledge it or take it seriously

Lokeans: continue to refuse to acknowledge or take my abuse in their community seriously, assume i was ill-informed, foolish, say I was AT FAULT FOR BEING ABUSED, etc, and refuse to engage with me directly while claiming all this shit

--

(: this is why i fucking left y'all. Not even other pagan communities have treated me this way. No other religious community besides the Christians have treated me this way. Im being honest, no exaggeration. So if that sucks to hear, sit with that. Ask yourself "if someone told me they were abused by a friend of mine, how would I treat them?" "If a teen said they were being treated creepily by adults in my community, what would I say?"

You are all responsible for the safety of your fellow community members and responsible for both representing your god to others, and for holding him accountable for these community-wide problems. If you dont know what Im talking about when I mean groomers were allowed to be grossly inappropriate in front of minors, I mean look at Nornoriel Lokason and how long he was allowed to talk about "elf cock" before he was called out by @da-at-ass (im sorry to ping you, but you Were There) just for a start. Look at Raven Kaldera and Galena Krasskova being the first to really write books on Lokean devotion. Look at the way this community treats discussions (or lack thereof) of safe sexual expression, boundary-setting, grooming, adult responsibility for teen safety, community responsibility, etc.

I mean, for fucks sake, look at @logun-vakt-maga-lokison vagueposting about how I am somehow responsible for my OWN ABUSE. How they blame CHILDREN for not being appropriate around ADULTS when it should 100% be the other way around. How they pull this "oh age of consent was different for Vikings" and in the comments question if I was even groomed, or if I somehow asked for it. (: What the fuck is wrong with you? Another person vagueposted about how my experience didnt happen, and then blocked me when I had a conversation with someone else about it in their comments.

For anyone who does believe and want to hear me out, i encourage you to call out other members of the community who are acting poorly about this, intentionally or not. If Loki attracts creeps, if He benefits from creeps worshiping Him, He will keep attracting them. Kick them out and make it in His worst interest to have predators and abuse apologists in His ranks. Actively pray to Him to ferret out the abusers and cast them from His community, don't just sit there waiting for retribution to maybe eventually occur -- or it wont. ETA: The original context for this post seems to have gotten lost, so I'll share it here. I just honestly shared a part of my experience and wanted to safely express it and be heard.

[senblades]

Loved your shuake Loki/Sigyn art…I too am a mythology enjoyer and have thought about their parallels. I do love Sigyn as the goddess of victory despite being married to Loki, who notoriously causes chaos around him LOL. Like Joker I’d like to think Sigyn looks past Loki’s “trickster-like” tendencies and sees him for who he really is. That’s how I’ve always interpreted the basin/venom myth. But that’s just my interpretation. Always fun to talk about this stuff!

thank you! <3

and yes yes yes I LOVE looking at all the history and mythology of personas- especially Loki, because I think that there's so much stuff that links to Akechi juuuust beneath the obvious "chaotic trickster god" stuff

Like, Loki in mythology as a constant scapegoat for the problems that the Aesir (I apologise for my abysmal spelling) cause? Interpreting the Aesir as Shido's conspiracy in that context is fascinating, and you can even draw a lot of parallels if you interpret them as the Phantom Thieves, too (the whole contingent relationship for their popularities, and whatnot)

(don't even get me STARTED on all the Loki/Sigyn stuff lmao- there's just. so much to draw from that comparison)

And even on a meta level, the fact that historians really struggle to find proof that Loki as a symbol of worship even existed before christian missionaries arrived in the Nordic countries? How that could be seen as a parallel to Yaldabaoth's fuckery? good shit

(Also, Loki being "the guy who solves as many problems as he causes" in the context of Akechi 'solving' a bunch of the mental shutdown and phsychotic breakdown cases is very funny to me HA)

Point is. uh. Mythology cool.
